*** Cunnamulla Fella ***

Cunnamulla und der Cunnamulla Fella haben einen festen Platz in der australischen Folks Lore. Jedes Jahr findet ein Cunnamulla Festival statt. Hauptsächlich geht es um das Rural Leben mit Stockman und Ringers (Cowboys) , Rodeos und die Farmer zeigen ihre Preisbullen und Rams. Der Cunnamulla Fella ist verewigt in Slim Dusty's Song. Die Skulptur steht auf dem Vorplatz des Paroo Shire Council. Slim Dusty Cunnamulla Fella

Now I'm a scrubber, runner and a breaker too
I live on damper and wallaby stew
I've got a big cattle dog with a staghound cross
I never saw the scrubber we couldn't toss
'Cause I'm the Feller from Cunnamulla
Yes I'm the Cunnamulla Feller

Now once when I was drovin' on the cattle trails
I met a little girl her name was Ada Vale
I said "Marry me Ada and I'll be the feller
And we'll settle down in Augathella"
I'll be the Feller at Augathella
Yes I'll be the Augathella Feller

Oh, she said her daddy's name was Charley Ville
She had a lot of kiddies and a lot of bills
So I grabbed my horse that was nice and handy

And I never stopped till I reached Dirranbandi
I was the dandy at Dirranbandi
Yes I was the Dirranbandi Dandy
